Restaurante Belmonte — Restaurant in Valencia

We went in search of tasty lamb and we certainly found it! The speciality is lechazo asado de Arande de Duero. This is special suckling lamb from Castilla y León that even has its own IGP. It’s cooked in a barbecue oven and is perfectly crisp and caramelised on the outside whilst being soft and unctuous inside - it’s own juices enough to make it even better. The @bodegasmuga Rioja Crianza 2019 was quite a big rich style that worked perfectly with the richness of the lamb. Prices were very fair too. Will most certainly be back for that delicious lamb ! And we did go back this Sunday and the lamb was even better!! We also had some delicious Morcilla and Bellota Jamon. Service was very friendly too....

Lamb lovers paradise. Fantastic traditional Spanish fare with friendly owners and staff. Had Grilled lamb chops and fried eggs with foie gras shavings. Was in food heaven. Saw so many other nice dishes being served like grilled prawns and sardines. Their specialty is leg of lamb which looked lovely. Must visit gem if you like Spanish traditional meats in an informal setting. Very close to the Mestalla soccer stadium and the Westin Hotel. Not to be missed if you are in the area. Must book during game days. Reasonable pricing. Wish I went with a big group to try...

First let me say the food was ok.

The cuttlefish appetizer was enough to feed for 4 people, easily.

The lamb had remnants of the sticker on the leg bone still from its processor, slightly melted off.

The meat was juicy and the skin was crispy.

They also said they could not serve cava by the glass even though it was on the menu as by the glass.

Not their fault but the power cut out 4 times while I was there which.

The service was friendly and accommodating and apologetic for the power outage.

But, for me it’s always about the food. Service...
